Opens East Coast Sales And Support Office in
Charlotte

Noting the back-to-back
successes of its ST3400 TAWS/RMI and previous-generation SN3308
EHSI, San Diego-area Sandel Avionics has opened an East Coast sales
and support center at Concord Regional Airport, just minutes from
downtown Charlotte, NC.

The new office is staffed by Product Support Specialists Mark
Everhart and Charles Cranford and, working in conjunction with the
company's West Coast headquarters, now enables Sandel to offer tech
support to dealers, completion centers and OEM service centers from
8 am Eastern time through 5 pm Pacific time. The new Concord
location will also be the home office for Sandel's Eastern Regional
Sales Manager William Elliott.

With the recent TSO approval and announced shipping dates for
Sandel's new SN3500 EHSI (right) --a turbine-class navigation
system with an advanced display, 2,000-hour-rated backlight, and
built-in upgradeability -- Sandel president Gerry Block said he
decided that a second support center would be a natural step toward
providing nationwide coverage for the company's dealers and
customers.

"Since we're in the avionics business for the long term, this
makes perfect sense in that we can enhance our product support for
both of our current display systems, and also establish a broader
industry presence for the introduction of some of our new avionics
innovations later in the year," Block said.
